Input: synaptics - add image sensor support
Synaptics makes (at least) two kinds of touchpad sensors:
* Older pads use a profile sensor that could only infer the location
of individual fingers based on the projection of their profiles
onto row and column sensors.
* Newer pads use an image sensor that can track true finger position
using a two-dimensional sensor grid.
Both sensor types support an "Advanced Gesture Mode":
When multiple fingers are detected, the touchpad sends alternating
"Advanced Gesture Mode" (AGM) and "Simple Gesture Mode" (SGM)
packets.
The AGM packets have w=2, and contain reduced resolution finger data
The SGM packets have w={0,1} and contain full resolution finger data
Profile sensors try to report the "upper" (larger y value) finger in
the SGM packet, and the lower (smaller y value) in the AGM packet.
However, due to the nature of the profile sensor, they easily get
confused when fingers cross, and can start reporting the x-coordinate
of one with the y-coordinate of the other. Thus, for profile
sensors, "semi-mt" was created, which reports a "bounding box"
created by pairing min and max coordinates of the two pairs of
reported fingers.
Image sensors can report the actual coordinates of two of the fingers
present. This patch detects if the touchpad is an image sensor and
reports finger data using the MT-B protocol.
NOTE: This patch only adds partial support for 2-finger gestures.
The proper interpretation of the slot contents when more than
two fingers are present is left to later patches. Also,
handling of 'number of fingers' transitions is incomplete.
